Pyongyang, October 29 (KCNA) -- The Missile Administration of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea conducted a test-fire of sea-to-surface strategic cruise missiles in the West Sea of Korea on October 28.

Pak Jong Chon, vice-chairman of the Central Military Commission and secretary of the Central Committee of the Workers' Party of Korea, Kim Jong Sik, member of the Central Military Commission and first vice department director of the Central Committee of the WPK, Jang Chang Ha, general director of the Missile Administration of the DPRK, the vice commander of Armaments of the Navy of the Korean People's Army and engineers of the shipboard weapon systems oversaw the test-fire.

The cruise missiles, improved for the launch from the ship, were fired vertically and flew for over 7 800 seconds along the preset route above the West Sea to destroy the target.

The vice-chairman of the Party Central Military Commission said:

Important successes are being made in putting our nuclear forces on a practical basis according to the strategic plan of the Party Central Committee for steadily expanding the sphere of application of the war deterrents. It is an extension of exercising the war deterrent and an act of exercising it in a more responsible manner to continuously test the reliability of different strategic offensive means and impress their abilities upon the enemies. The head of state has already defined that the deterrent guaranteed by powerful offensive power is just the most perfect war deterrent and defence capability. We should steadily update our combat capability. In particular, it is our responsible mission and duty to ceaselessly toughen the nuclear combat posture.

On the same day he learned about the training of the sailors of the destroyers Choe Hyon and Kang Kon for operating the ships and their weapon systems and assigned relevant tasks for further raising the military and practical qualifications of the sailors. -0-
